a factor a. to take contracts worth thousands
OF dollars annually that the larger coke firms
of the Connellsyille region have had for
years. These contracts have dwindled away
so gradually that the operators have not
given the matter much attention during the
past year. Business has been pretty brisk
with the coke men here for two YEAR. and
they did not give much attention 10 the
gradual ioss of their eastern trade By COM
pairing their present sales in the east with
what they shipped several years ago. the loss
in trade i more keenly realized They can
not longer sffoni to ignore the matter. This
decision has been fastened by the fact that
almost every week letters are received from
eastern customers of Connellsville coke ask

costing them. This new coke some say.
